Falling tonight

Chapter 66 Injury (1)

Zhao Shi's forehead twitched and he took a deep breath, "Zhao Rou, I can go to the Han family to propose breaking off the engagement, but for your own good, listen to dad's advice."

Zhao Shijin's eyes shone brightly, "Either strike while the iron is hot and you quickly arrange a marriage with Mu Zhou, or you can consolidate your position by conceiving his child. Otherwise, if you break up in the future, look at who else dares to ask for your help. Mu family and Han family, another abandoned woman."

In the past, Zhao Fangyi's ability to show up next to Mu Zhou was entirely due to old friendship. Now that the engagement with the Mu family has been cancelled, the contact between the two families will become less and less in the future.

Now that Zhao Rou has climbed to the top of the Mu family, how can she let go of this opportunity? In order to avoid long nights and dreams, she must marry Mu Zhou immediately to maximize her benefits.

Zhao Rou is very aware of Zhao Shijin's insinuations. In his eyes, Zhao Fangyi's feelings may not be so important at the moment. What is important is that the connection with the Mu family cannot be broken.

She curled her fingers on her thigh and said, "Dad, I understand what you said, and I know how to do it without embarrassing the Zhao family."

She bit the last few words especially hard.

Zhou Yun was unhappy and said with a cold face, "What do you mean by this? What about the Zhao family? Isn't your surname Zhao? Who has given you everything you have eaten and drank all these years? You..."

Before she finished speaking, Zhao Rou stopped her with a voice full of irony, "Aunt Zhou, after more than ten years of saying that you support me, haven't you gotten tired of saying it? I'm tired of hearing it. Some things don't represent me. I didn’t say it before, and I won’t say it in the future. Just enough is enough, okay?”

Hearing this, Zhao Shijin was stunned for a moment. He turned to look at Zhou Yun next to him.

A hint of haze flashed in Zhou Yun's eyes, and disappeared in an instant.

Zhao Shijin asked Zhao Rou, "What are you talking about?"

Before she could answer, she heard Zhou Yun snort coldly.

Zhou Yun smiled hypocritically, "Okay, you don't want to hear it if you don't want to hear it. Don't try to sow discord between me and your dad. You are used to making the decision by yourself. Your dad and I can't control you. You can do it yourself." May you be blessed.”

After saying that, she didn't know whether she felt guilty or was really irritated by Zhao Rou's words. She got up and left the living room and went up to the second floor.

Zhao Shijin looked at Zhou Yun's back on the stairs and thought for a moment.

It was already an hour later when Mu Zhou arrived.

All the servants knew Mu Zhou's identity, and no one stopped him. He strode into Zhao's house, and he didn't see the worry that Zhao Rou would conflict with them on the way.

There were only two people in the living room, Zhao Shijin and Zhao Rou, and it was quiet. There were several cups of tea on the coffee table, exuding mist.

Neither of the two people on the sofa spoke. Zhao Shijin was sitting with his hands hanging by his side with a bad expression, while Zhao Rou was leaning on the sofa and playing with her mobile phone.

"Uncle Zhao," Mu Zhou approached and greeted Zhao Shijin.

Seeing Mu Zhou coming, Zhao Shijin calmed down and nodded in response.

Mu Zhou didn't say much to him, walked straight to Zhao Rou and stood in front of her. He put one hand in his pocket and stretched out the other in front of her, "I'm here to pick you up."

He was standing right in front of her. He was tall and long-legged. Zhao Rou couldn't help but look up at him and saw her own figure in the black pupils of his lowered eyes.

She couldn't tell what she felt at this moment, whether it was a sense of full security or a sense of vanity in front of Zhao Shijin. Zhao Rou obeyed her heart, gave him her hand and stood up, "Okay."

The two held hands in front of Zhao Shijin, and Zhao Shijin stayed on their hands, with complicated eyes.

"Dad, I'm leaving first." Zhao Rou said nothing, turned around and walked side by side with Mu Zhou out the door.

"Your room has been tidied up. Come back and live in it later." Zhao Shijin said behind him.

Zhao Rou paused and said without looking back, "No."

Mu Zhou drove here by himself and got into the car. He held the steering wheel and stared at Zhao Rou, "Come and have lunch with me." She was a little tired, so she fastened her seat belt and pressed her temples, "Okay."

Mu Zhou reached out and touched the top of her hair, gently and tenderly, like a kitten, with a smile in his eyes.

The car had just driven 100 meters when a figure suddenly flashed in front of them and rushed towards the front of their car. In the flash of lightning, Muzhou hurriedly stepped on the brakes. The front of the car swerved several times, and the tires made a sharp friction sound with the ground.

The speed of the car was not fast, but the figure rushed very hard, and the car still inevitably collided with it, making a loud "bang" collision sound.

Zhao Rou was immersed in Zhao Shijin's words. Before she could see clearly what was happening, her upper body, which was thrown forward by the sudden braking, was tightly strangled by the seat belt. Her sternum was painful for a moment.

After reacting, Mu Zhou opened the door and got out of the car. He walked forward with a gloomy face. When he saw the person lying on the ground, his expression changed.

Zhao Fangyi fell to the ground, her face pale, her hands covering her legs, looking miserable. The severe pain made her tremble when she spoke, "Brother Mu, Brother Mu, I'm in so much pain."

Mu Zhou knelt down and lifted up the skirt on her calf. There were several scratches on her skin, and dark red blood was flowing from the wounds.

Blood dripped on the ground, and a small pool of blood on the ground slowly expanded, gradually soaking Zhao Fangyi's skirt.

Mu Zhou's pupils tightened, and with a strong hand, he tore open Zhao Fangyi's skirt with a "sizzle", took off a piece of fabric to press the wound, and then leaned over to pick her up.

"I'll take you to the hospital."

Just as Zhao Rou was about to get out of the car to see what was going on, he saw Mu Zhou leaning over to pick up someone from the ground, it was Zhao Fangyi.

He opened the back seat and put Zhao Fangyi in, then sat in the driver's seat and started the car in an emergency.

"Be patient."

This was said to Zhao Fangyi. Mu Zhou did not ask her why she appeared on the road and crashed into his car.

Zhao Rou sat in the passenger seat and stared blankly at Mu Zhou's series of actions.

She waited for a while before turning around and asked the person in the back row who had his eyes closed and looked in pain, "Zhao Fangyi, what are you doing? Are you looking for death?"

Zhao Fangyi twitched her lips and said in a weak voice, "Sister, I, I just have something to say to Brother Mu. I accidentally bumped into you, I'm sorry."

Mu Zhou, who was driving, glanced at Zhao Fangyi's appearance in the rearview mirror and pursed his lips into a straight line. "If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it later. Let's go to the hospital first."

Zhao Rou's eyes turned to her knees. She was covering the wound. The blood had soaked a large area of ​​red on her skirt. The wound could not be seen. It should be obvious from the amount of blood loss that the injury was serious.

Just as she was about to withdraw her gaze, she suddenly met Zhao Fangyi's weak and provocative smile, and Zhao Rou's eyebrows jumped.

Co-author Zhao Fangyi was not waiting for her at home today, but was she waiting for her here?

Is this using bitter meat?It's so cruel to use yourself as a bargaining chip.

Although she knew that this sister was often crazy, she didn't know that she could be so crazy that she would hurt herself to gain attention.

The car was traveling at a furious speed, and 10 minutes later the Bentley stopped in front of the hospital.

Zhao Rou didn't speak during the whole process. She looked at the back of Mu Zhou who was holding Zhao Fangyi a few meters in front of her. Her steps were nervous and fast, and she felt mixed feelings in her heart.

Mu Zhou kicked open the door of the emergency office and said, "Get a doctor, quickly!"
